Books with ambiguous endings where the reader questions everything written by the end of it

I’m looking for stories like the title of this post. I read a few of Paul Tremblay’s better books and really enjoyed the way he left the reader wondering about their preconceived notions about the plot before the book’s end. I thought he was going to be my new favorite author, but I really did not vibe with some of his work, so I’m looking for some suggestions.

The best books I read by Tremblay were Head Full of Ghosts, Disappearance at Devil’s Rock, and Cabin at the End of the World (in that order of preference). I’ve also read Survivor Song and Pallbearer’s Club, which were okay and awful respectively.

I enjoy Chuck Palahniuk’s earlier work and I’m a sucker for pretty much any Stephen King novel. I have been curious about Bag of Bones and Revival. I’m interested in Japanese horror as well. I really loved the Ring series, but did not read the additional works after Spiral (also, RIP Koji Suzuki, your works had a tremendous influence in my taste in horror). I’ve enjoyed all three Uketsu books, and House of Leaves quite a lot too.

I’m currently reading 14 by Peter Clines and have Tender is the Flesh on my shelf. If anyone has any suggestions for stuff in the vein of what I listed above, I’d be really happy to hear it.

EDIT: Thanks all for your great recommendations! I look forward to checking out your suggestions soon.

Aziza and Hop to It combo

Hello! Looking for some insight on a situation I had when playing with a friend recently. On his turn, he cast Hop to It while having Aziza on the battlefield. He then invoked Aziza’s ability and tapped itself, and two of the new rabbit tokens to copy Hop to It and create three more rabbit tokens.

I’m confused with the stack. He said that after casting the spell, it resolves and Aziza’s ability is still applicable. With the way I interpreted the card, the requirement for copying the spell is tapping three creatures before the spell resolves. We ultimately went with how he saw it, but I wasn’t sure if that was how it should actually play out.

Let me know if there is any ambiguity in my post. Thanks in advance for the help.
